Hi Barbara - I think they're really nice glasses :-) I love finding things in their original box, so satisfying.

I went to a car boot sale once and saw what looked like a Holmegaard Princess wine glass which I picked up to look at and the seller said 'there's six of those I've only got one out of the box' and held up a nice old Holmegaard box with the other five inside still wrapped up in their tissue paper. Even better - she only wanted £3 for them :shock:

If it was me, this would happen, I can guarantee it:I'd pick up the glass and the seller would come over and say, "That's Whitefriars that is, can let you have them for £50. We threw the box away this morning because it was a bit dusty. But it must be rare and valuable Whitefriars, because the box didn't say Whitefriars on it."

Oh, I miss going to antique fairs - I seem to have this conversation at every other stall.
